Does this all mean end of skilled emigration for IT guys? I cannot get it even with 95/100 points...

I don't think there is "something else",  because temporary visa holders are not allowed to enter Australia, so you can't get an employer-sponsored visa or a 491 visa.  

I have been in Aistralia all the time and currently onshore as well.

Almost a year passed from my first post here.

Currently, I have 95 points for 189, and 100 points for 190. (Vic)

Specialization is ICT Security Specialist.

Please tell me if there is still hope to get invited or I should think of something else?

Hello, Even with 80+5 points for 190-VIC is still not enough. Seeing, the latest trends (especially for Pro Rata) even 90 pointers are not being invited by VIC. I would suggest that you try to increase your points if you do have the option for that. One of my friends (Business analyst) with 85+5 points and D.O.E as Dec, 2019 is still waiting for the pre-invite from VIC.

Thanks for that. Thats good to know. Then I will not keep hoping and waiting. I will increase my points in august and will wait for 189 instead...

Thank you for your reply.

You need at least 90 points for the 189 visa. When you say you hope to be sponsored by the Victorian govt, are you sure you mean a 189? Don’t you mean a 190?

Sorry. My bad. Its 190. I have applied for both but my hope is for 190. As, you said 189 requires more marks that I will be able to obtain only after August.

I have 80 points now, have applied in early December to 189 in hope to get sponsored by Vic government. This will make my ponts 85.

I'm waiting for 3 month now and haven't hear anything... So I wander is it still possible to get invitation in 2020 with 80 point? Or I should think about plan B?
